Infohio has a great new resource to assist the teaching of the research writing process. Key steps of the process are divided into six learning modules. Students can work through each module in three steps. These three steps allow for an opportunity to LEARN, PRACTICE, and MASTER the topic.
Teachers can utilize the modules in class to teach full lessons or in a mini lesson to introduce or review a new step. Small group learning could take place as students practice and develop good writing habits. Infohio is available for students to utilize at home and makes a great resource.
Not only does this new resource assist students in learning the research components, it allows them to think critically about their writing process. Writing across the curriculum is vital for student success as they develop as writers. Standards for literacy in history/social studies, science, and technical subjects are applicable to all content teachers in grades 6-12. We hope this resource benefits many!
